AUSTIN, Dec. 1.—(AP)—Ponderous Harlan Wetz, whose
duty it has been to plug a hole in the line while more agile
teammates gained whatever glory the University of Texas
may have salvaged from a disappointing football season, was
a man of the hour—or rather of a minute and twenty-five
seconds—today.
The 285-pound tackle performed the unusual feat of kick-
ing off for Texas against bitter rival Texas A. and M. yes-
terday, then lumbering down to tackle the receiver on the
Cadet two-yard line and lead to a 6-0 victory for the Long-
horns.
TO ABSORB GI TALENT-
Major Leagues Plan Increase of Player Limits
CHICAGO, Dec 1—(P——A post-
war 'reconversion program, relax-
ing the squad limits to absorb base-
ball players returning from the
armed forces, will get attention
from baseballs major leagues at a
joint meeting in New York Dec 13.
A recommendation by the steer-
tag committee of both leagues calls
for increases in both mid-season
and reserve player lists of five and
10 re-instated players, respectively.
The limits now are 35 and 40 per
squad, with no concession for play-
ers reinstated from the national
defense list which number about

In this, the fifty-first meeting
between the deepest gridiron rivals
of the Southwest, there were thrills
stacked upon thrills as the great-

this section—43,000—roared approv-

fighting Texas team that almost
repeated the history of 1940 when
the great Aggie eleven of John
Kimbrough fame lost in the first
57 seconds of play.
It required Just one minute and
twenty-five seconds for that touch-
down.
Paul Yates, Aggie backfield star,
took the kick-off behind his goal
line and strode forward. But at the
two-yard stripe the giant Wetz
crashed into him., Bobby Goff, bril-
liant Cadet punter, stepped far pack
and boomed one to midfield. Roger

Western Union officials esti-

million words will move from
Baltimore by sports writers and
the Army and Navy depart-
ments reported the largest short-
wave coverage of any sports
event in history had been ar-
ranged for the fray.
Army’s squad of 38 players was
scheduled for a workout at the
newly-sodden stadium this after-

not scheduled to arrive until just
before game time.
Last-minute quotation* from the
coaches:
Col. Bari (Red) Blaik, Army:
"Navy has beaten Army the past
five years in a row. Last year and
the year before that the Navy Une
turned the trick, but that won’t be
the margin Saturday. They will
need more than a line to beat us."
Comdr. Oscar E. Haber#. Navy:
The Navy team is set for its best
game of the year. If the boys don’t
make too many mistakes, I think
we have a good chance of winning
No doubt Army is potent, and they
have enough to really pour it on us

injury. But yesterday he was in
top condition and he again was
1 practically the whole offense for
the Longhorns.
Layne pitched a strike to Jimmie
Watson for 27 yards. Again he went
back to pass but this time there
were no Longhorns open. So the
Dallas lad cut to the right, raced
down the sidelines and dove across
the goal line, bowling over a couple
of Aggies with his closing rush.
Diminutive Billy Andrews came in
to drop-kick the extra point. The
boot was low and went into the line.
The ball bounced crazily to the side.
Andrews tried to pick it up and run
the point across but a flock of Ca-
dets smothered him. But it wasn't
needed.
From there on out it was a smash-
ing, crashing battle of mighty lines
and the aerial and running wizard-
ry of Layne against the versatile
offensive of the fighting Aggies.
In the final four minutes, A
& M. swept 42 yards with pow-
erful! Bobby Goff and Mann
Scott crushing through the line
and Jim Cashion pitching bulls-
eye passes. But the tired Long-
horns pulled themselves togeth-
er for a last stand on the two-
yard line. They yielded a foot
to the rush of Scott but took
it away when Mason Matthews
tried a center smash. Then they
threw Geff back for a two-yard
, loss. On fourth down Cushion
fumbled and picked up the ball
but was swarmed by a half-
dozen Longhorns for a le-yard
loss.
The Aggies put up a great goal
line stand of their own to the sec-
ond period when they halted Tex-
as on the one-foot stripe. Anoth-
er time they threw the Longhorns
back after they had stormed to the
Aggie 12 and on still another occa-
sion stopped Texas at the 14.
No closer game to the statistics
ever has been played by the two
teams Texas had a total of 22#
yards rushing and passing the Ag-
gies 22. In first downs, A. and M
led 12 to 10.
Spur Takes Third
Straight 4A Title
SPUR, Dec. 1—Spur's Bulldogs
won their third straight Im trict 4A
championship yesterday by beattag
the Floydada Whirlwinds, 24-6,
here.
The Spur team, coached by Jack
Christian, will meet Wellington in
the bi-district playoff.
Jimmie Draper made all four of
the Spur touchdowns, the first one
coming on the initial play from
scrimmage - a mighty 85-yard
sprint.
Johnny Collins passed to Lane
Decker for 30 yards and the Floy-
dada tally in the third period.
The Bulldogs will go to Welling-
ton next Friday for a bi-district
gam*.
Separation Denied
CHUNGKING, Dec. 1.-(-A
source close to Generalissimo Chi-
ang Kai-Shek ridiculed today a re-
port published in London that
Chiang and his wife had separated.
This source said the report was ma-
licious snd mendacious and should
be thoroughly discredited.
With 18 teams ready for action,
the ASFTC basketball league com-
mences firing Monday night on the
field house courts. Six games are
listed for the opener, six more will
be played Tuesday and six again
Wednesday.
From there on out, according to
the schedule arranged by Capt. Ar-
thur G. Hyatt, athletic officer,
games will be played on Mondays,
Tuesdays and Wednesdays of each
week, with six contests listed each
night.
Playing on two courts, a pair of
games will get under way at 8
o'clock, two more will begin at 7
o’clock and a third pair at 8 o'clock.
This year the basketball loop
, will operate on a regimental
basts, rather than the battalion
setup of last season. Each of
the ASFTC regiments will be
represented by two teams—one
of enlisted men and one of of-
ficers—making fourteen teams.
Rounding out the league will be
two teams, one enlisted men
and one officers, from the 68th
Medical Training Battalion, an
officer* team from Headquart-
er*, ASFTC and an officer*
team from Officer* Candidate
school. -
It is Captain Hyatt's plan to have
all the teams play each other
through the league season and then
settle the title st the finish with
a Shaughnessy playoff, the device
which is so popular with minor
league baseball. In this playoff,
the first four teams in the final
standings battle it out among them-
selves for the ultimate title.
Captain Hyatt also announced
that transportation will be provid-
ed for the various teams to and
from the gymnasium. He also said
the regiments were to be canvassed
for men capableof officiating as
referees. Enlisted men who can fill
the jobs will be paid at the rate
of two dollars per game.
„ In addition to basketball. It
is planned to form a bawling
league which will operate along
the same lines as the cage cir-
cuit.
At the end of the season,
said Captain Hyatt, both the
basketball and bowling title
winners wll be sent to Dallas to
compete In the Eighth Service
Command championship*.
